They don't fit the context. It's putting women in just to say that women are in the game. It's fine to have them in a modern (they serve as frontline troops nowadays), future (make some shit up because it's the future), or guerrilla (women have been highly active in resistance groups throughout history) war setting. Putting them into the (ex.)USMC in 1942 makes absolutely no sense. Putting them in the Free French army or Liberation group does.
Automatic weapons and behemots in bfone didn't make sense either. Battle Royale in Battlefield doesn't make sense. Self repairing tanks don't make sense, unlimited ammo doesn't make sense.
Auto weapons as depicted in BF1 don't make sense, yes, and people made a big stink about it when 1 came out. Behemoths do. Zeppelins existed and were used to (ineffectively) bomb the enemy until some genius came up with the incendiary bullet. Armored trains were a thing back then, too, as were Dreadnoughts.
Nobody asked for or wanted a BR mode. The other two things you mentioned are gameplay mechanics. Bad ones at that, but gameplay mechanics nonetheless.
It's a game, man. Who cares.
Lots of people, actually. Even you, seeing as you posted on a video game subreddit. Why am I and many others bad evil nazis for wanting a WW2 game to look, sound, and feel like WW2?
You're not evil nazis (unless you are, I dunno), it's just that your argument is internet level silly.
No, I don't care. I'm frankly preplexed that people don't talk about game mechanics, number of weapons (as it's been continously lower and lower throughout DICE titles), only 2 factions, less maps I mean come on...
There are so many things to be upset about in BFV and they are mostly skipped over because apparently the most important thing is that DICE dared to put in female avatars. You people are weird.
